Thoughts on how often to trip?
    #23569906 - 08/23/16 05:55 PM (7 years, 6 months ago)

Any thoughts on how often I should take shrooms?

I had a great experience three weeks ago. Prior to that this year I had taken some small doses around 4 to 6 weeks apart.

I've been considering microdosing regularly for its alleged qualities for improving creativity, attention and disposition, as I've felt those effects linger from the times I took any quantity (obviously the duration changed with the dose). 

However, after having my first real "trip" experience  ever (3.5grams) I'm leaning toward taking a full 3.5-4 grams once a month, or every fifth week.

Has anyone experienced any kinds of burnout from regular dosing like that? And, will microdosing affect my tolerance for a larger dose? If so, should I maybe not microdose the week leading up to the full 3.5-4g?

I'm not completely sure about if you should microdose leading up to a full trip. I think that if you small amounts regularly for a while, you would end up having tolerance when you want to trip for real. But someone else could tell you more about that than me. But I woudn't do it if you wanted to have 0 tolerance for your trip.

I've done high dose shroom trips once/week for months st one point and never had any kind of burnout or lingering negative-effects.

Always was completely fine and basically back to normal the day after the trip, and positive-effects from tripping definitely do linger on. Especially if you learn something from the trip.

Doing mushrooms once a month should be completely fine.

The first 7 months of 2015 I was dosing mushroom once a month, increasing dosage by a gram each time. In hindsight, it started feeling almost like a chore or something I needed to do. It was fun and all, but looking back now I wasn't doing it for recreation but more of testing the waters to feel the different effects from the 1-7g range. I got to a point where I felt I no longer wanted or needed to trip, so I stopped.

I have been getting my feet wet again lately, have got a trip report I want to write if I ever get around to it. I had a pretty profound trip on a fairly low dose lemon tek/tea about a week ago and am considering my next dose on either the new moon coming up, or the next full moon like this previous trip.

OP if you want to keep the magic, space your doses out at least a week or two minimum. Most will say two weeks, I like four.

If you have a good reason to trip often you can, but it takes taking enough to overcome tolerance.  Over some periods, for various reasons (writing and research) I've tripped multiple days a week, weeks and even months on end.  Tolerance maxes out at about 250g fresh (25g dry) for normal cubes, if you ever reach that level you can stop increasing the dose.  These are all solid trips with OEVs and all the usual side effects.

The down side isn't so bad, when you finally quit there's a few days to a week max of blunted affect where things don't seem right while your serotonin setpoints reset themselves.  Considering the benefits available that's a really small price to pay. 

At the level you're talking about there's nothing to worry about at all, it's kind of an ideal schedule IF you can keep to it. :scaryshroom::thumbup:

I'm going to have to try a shroom binge like that someday!  I've always been weary, because I have a buddy that did something similar.  He thinks it messed with him permanently, and made him crazy.  If I think about it, I don't notice a difference in his sanity, he's always been insane lol.  I also know he ate large doses of mushrooms everyday for atleast weeks.  It sounds like you still had some off days across your months.

Try it on a small scale, that's what I did first.  I had weekends off at least, and usually Tuesdays (voluntarily due to some other stuff I was doing at the time).  Having some time off is helpful if you have any tendency to go completely down the rabbit hole. :lol:

There's no right answer for this it COMPLETELY depends on how it's used and who is doing it.

Thanks to everyone for the responses!

I think I'll do another 3.5, maybe 4 grams next time, then start microdosing and see what effect it has on the next big dose after that.

You ain't kiddin'! I have to pencil it in to my calendar, haha. Based on last time though, I liked tripping early on Sunday. It wore off by the evening and it helped me go to bed early and get a good start on the week.

a few years ago I was shrooming about once every two weeks because I was off of work. had lots of fun. I would take more and more (from like 2gs to about 4gs) because I was sort of losing some of that magic. I had some fantastic and amazing trips but I think I was losing it because I would mostly did the same thing every time I tripped. I've since slowed down a lot. Even when I find time to spare a day on a weekend I have off I take around 3.5-4 and it's not really where it used to be. A few weeks ago I tripped with a friend for the first time in a long time. I told her I was probably going to take 3.5 based on my trips alone and she said she's do the same. It definitely seemed like I was tripping harder than I normally do at home by myself. It was an amazing trip and we had a lot of fun. I've been starting to think that the key to not losing the magic isn't just the frequency and amount of shrooms of a trip but new experiences and doing different things

That's good to know. I've been pretty solitary so far, mostly because not all of my friends are into psychedelics, and I'm often on a tight schedule so I end up tripping when I can fit it in.

I ended up microdosing tonight (.2g) to help get a boatload of work done for tomorrow (totally did the trick) so I'll have to postpone my next trip a little anyway -- maybe I'll line up some people to do it with this time.
